Bare: A Pop Opera – Auditions lyrics
Matt
But soft! What light
Through yonder window breaks?
It is the east
And Juliet is the sun
Arise, fair sun
And kill the envious moon

Guys
Who is already sick and pale with grief

Lucas
That thou her maid art far more fair than she

Zach
Be not her maid since she is envious

Peter
Her vestal livery is but sick and green

Guys
And none but fools do wear it
Cast it off
Cast it off

Ivy
T'is but thy name that is my enemy
Thou art thyself though not a Montague
What's Montague?
It is nor hand nor foot

Nadia
It is nor hand nor foot nor arm nor face

Ivy
O be some other name
Belonging to a man

Nadia
Hey, what's in a name?

Ivy
That which we call a rose
By any other word

Girls
Would smell just as sweet

Ivy/Tanya
My only love has sprung from my only hate

Two Guys
A plague on both your houses

Two Girls
Think of marriage now

Peter/Matt/Lucas
They drugs are quick
Thus with a kiss I die

Nadia/Guy
He's dead
He's dead
He's dead
He's dead
He's dead

Sister Chantelle
I think I've seen all I can stand to see

Ivy
Sister, I-

Sister Chantelle
Quit trippin', girl
I know you didn't just interrupt me!
And what's with the warble?
Snow White in the house?
You're quite a dancer
Too bad you opened your mouth
I have a Romeo who's well rehearsed
Then there's the rest of you
This show has got to be cursed
This play's a tragedy without a doubt
Now, are there any other fools here
To make me fall out?

Jason
With love's light wings did I
O'erperch these walls
For stony limits
Cannot hold love out
And what love can do
That dares love attempt

Matt
Attempt thy kinsman
Are no stop to me

Sister Chantelle
If they do see thee they will murder thee

Matt/Jason
Alack

Matt
There lies more peril
In thine eye
Than twenty of their swords

Jason
Look thou but sweet
And I am proof
Against their enemy

Group of Actors
I would not for the world
They saw thee here

Jason
I have night's cloack to hide me
From their eyes

Matt
And but thou love me
Let them find me here

Matt/Jason
My life were better ended by their hate

Jason
Than death prorogued
Wanting of thy love

Group of Actors
By whose direction found'st
Thou out this place?

Jason
By love, that first did prompt
Me to inquire

Sister Chantelle
Enough!
Shut up!
I'll go make my decisions
I'll be back in a few
Girl, what is wrong with you?

Peter
What made you change your mind?

Jason
I thought I should try

Tanya
You nailed it

Nadia
Unforgettable

Matt
One talented guy

Lucas
Reminder
W e'll meet in Tanya's room on Friday night

Jason
We'll be there

Nadia
You're not going, are you?

Lucas
Get me orders

Matt
I don't know, I might

Lucas/Jason
Remember back when all we needed was beer?

Nadia
When we were freshman and everything was clear

Ivy
Except your skin

Lucas
No more catfights once we leave for the rave

Nadia
Then put the princess in the trunk

Ivy
If we drag her behind
I'll behave

Sister Chantelle
I'm going to announce the cast list now and I don't want any drama until the first rehearsal, you got that?
You all did very well and of course everyone is guaranteed a spot in the chorus.
Principals: Nurse, Nadia McConnell.

Nadia
Surprise.

Sister Chantelle
I said no drama, or you're gonna need a nurse. Got it?

Nadia
Yes, Sister.

Sister Chantelle
Mercutio, Peter Simonds
Benvolio, Lucas Carter
Tybalt, Matthew Lloyd
Romeo, Jason McConnell
Juliet, Ivy Robinson
Lady Capulet, Tanya Garrett
Lady Montague, hmmm...
Diane Lee, does your father have a camcorder?

Diane
Yes, sister!

Sister Chantelle
Ladye Montague, Diane Lee.

Guy #1
Hear my voice

Girl #1
Did you really hear me?

Guy #2
Hear my voice

Girl #2
I don't think you see me

Guy #3
And you think you know me

Guy #2
Did you really hear me?

Guy #3
Would you really know me?

Girl #2
And you think you see me

Guy #1
Hear my voice

Jason
And you think you know me

Nadia
But you don't hear me

Jason
And you think you know me

Nadia
See me

Jason
And you think know me

Matt
Didn't know you were auditioning.

Jason
Neither did I. Decided this morning.

Matt
Just like that, huh?

Jason
Yep.

Matt
Well... congratulations.

Peter
Mom, we both got cast
We're in the show

Claire
Best friends playing best friends
How poetic

Peter
I knew that you would want to know

Claire
Well, you know I'd love you either way, but I love you more now!

Peter
Oh Mom, here's Jason.
Say hello!

Claire
What? Oh, okay.

Peter
No, nevermind, we have to go

Claire
Call me with dates, Peter. The whole family will come
Even your father
I'll make sure of it.

Peter
Love you, Mom.

Claire
And I love you, Peter. Excelsior!
